I have re-installed everything from scratch and when I got tired last night i left the RPi with a working sickbeard , sabnzbd was not starting and samba was still to be installed
this morning I fired the RPi up and sabnzbd started but sickbeard gives this error

sickbeard is not starting I have installed samba and it seems to be working

What was the server host you used? was it 0.0.0.0 ? Try setting it to that. You can also changing the port number as it may still be in use from the previous install. Also try removing it as an autostart job until its up and running again.

I dont know m8 I just followed the tut again and also i think i will have to redo it as i removed the graphical as in here
RaspberryPi – rPiDownloader Part 1 – Basic Setup | Cylindric's Words I the followed all of the instructions upto stage 3 so i think it is 127.0.0.0 last night i accessed it through 192.168.0.10:8081 as usuall because i reformatted the sd card and re-installed the stock image the defaults should all have been reset ?
how would i do your suggestions

The only problem I had was when I tried to upgrade sabnzbd to a newer version. Just couldn't get it to work at all. So I re-installed original version again and took all the defaults and it worked. Try the same with sickbeard with original version and see if that works.

Can you access sickbeard externally on your laptop or is that same problem?

I didn't use that guide RaspberryPi – rPiDownloader Part 1 – Basic Setup | Cylindric's Words. I will try to find the guide I used as it may give you some pointers.

Hi no I cannot access sickbeard from my laptop it should work I think i will purge sickbeard and re-install it again

If that fails, did you backup your SD card and then could restore from that?

I need to do that on mine now that everything is up and running.

I did but i was having problems with it saying the disk was full when adding shows which is why i decided on a fresh install

I thought you changed it to add all your shows to portable HD? So far thats working OK for me and not received any errors about space.

I was already using a usb hdd but it was a quite small partition so i deleted that partition and another one and then made up a larger partition from the 2 partitions and that is when the latest problems started I have just gone back to the backup image so hopefully that might cure it I have modified /etc/fstab to recognise and mount the larger partition so finger crossed for tonight
sabnzbd has started downloading the shows I manually found so it looks good

as side the screen hinge on my laptop has broken and I am trying to convince medion to send me a new hinge because that wanted £100 to have it back for repair and then I found it was still under the 3 year guarantee

Thats a good result. I hope they fix it soon for you

Well now i have found what caused that error I tried to change the temp download folder to /mnt/share/tv, my usb hdd

Is /mnt/share/tv a valid path? Seems same as I am doing and mines working OK. I will check again when I get home.

Yes it is the path that sabnzbd uses to send the completed show to via the postprocessing script i corrected it back /var/sickbeard/dowloads/incomplete and sick beard started up again
